The Pittsburgh Steelers went into the 2025 NFL draft with a plan and stuck to it with all seven picks. They emphasized high-character players with athleticism on offense and physicality on defense. Here is the Steelers full list of draft picks for the draft.

PITTSBURGH -- The 2025 NFL draft wrapped up Saturday night. Despite a lot of speculation around them perhaps drafting Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, the Pittsburgh Steelers used their No. 21 selection of the first round to fill a defensive need on Thursday night.

The Pittsburgh Steelers entered the NFL draft with a very real need at quarterback. “We wanted to retool physicality in all areas,” head coach Mike Tomlin said. Pittsburgh added 650ish pounds along the defensive line in first-rounder Derrick Harmon and fifth-rounder Yahya Black.
